HOUSTON — The Yankees, fresh off a stunning comeback over the Indians in the ALDS, look to pull off another upset against the Astros in the ALCS. Houston captured the AL West with 101 wins, knocked off the Red Sox in four games in the ALDS and has Aaron Judge’s main competition for AL MVP in Jose Altuve, who pounded Boston pitching last week. They also beat the Yankees in five of seven games during the regular season, but as the last round proved, that doesn’t always mean much. The Post’s Dan Martin breaks down how the teams match up:

At the plate

Getting on base: While the Yankees pounded their way into the playoffs, the Astros have an even deeper lineup — led by Altuve. The diminutive second baseman put up similar offensive numbers to Judge, but was much more consistent. And unlike Judge, who had a brutal ALDS, Altuve continued his onslaught, going 8-for-15 with three homers. Houston also gets production from Yulieski Gurriel, George Springer and Carlos Correa, who has pummeled the Yankees. Though Didi Gregorius hit his way into Yankee playoff lore, the rest of the lineup has mostly struggled, especially Judge, who went 1-for-20 with 16 strikeouts. The Yankees likely will need more production from up and down the lineup to advance.

Edge: Houston

Hitting for power: The Yankees paced the majors with 241 homers during the season, but the Astros (238) were right behind them. Carlos Beltran had a rough year, but remains a dangerous postseason hitter. Marwin Gonzalez, Brian McCann and Evan Gattis can all go deep, and with Judge in a terrible funk, the Yankees need to continue to get power production from Greg Bird, Gary Sanchez and Brett Gardner.

Edge: Houston

On the basepaths: Altuve and Alex Bregman have some speed, as do Gardner and Aaron Hicks. Jacoby Ellsbury, if he gets playing time, does as well.

In the field

Infield defense: The Astros are strong around the diamond, with Correa among the best shortstops in the game. The Yankees got solid defensive play in the infield against the Indians, and most importantly, Sanchez was good behind the plate, silencing the critics, at least for now.

Edge: Even

Outfield defense: Gonzalez, Springer and Josh Reddick make up the Astros’ regular outfield, but when Cameron Maybin is in, they’re significantly better. Hicks has taken over the everyday spot in center and his arm and athleticism is a notable improvement over Ellsbury.

Edge: Even

Bench

In addition to Maybin, the Astros typically have Tyler White and Derek Fisher off the bench. They have been without Jake Marisnick, who broke his thumb. The Yankees’ bench was practically nonexistent in the ALDS, with Matt Holliday not stepping on the field, but if he’s on the roster he should get some at-bats against Houston’s left-handers. Chase Headley and Ellsbury were non-factors against the Indians, as well.

Rotation: Dallas Keuchel remains the ace of Houston’s staff, even with the addition of Justin Verlander. Keuchel typically torments the Yankees. The lefty shut them down two years ago in the wild-card game in The Bronx. Verlander has excelled since his trade from Detroit, while Charlie Morton and Brad Peacock aren’t as proven. Luis Severino proved his postseason mettle against the Indians after his wild-card fiasco versus Minnesota and Masahiro Tanaka and CC Sabathia also have performed well this October. What the Yankees do with the inconsistent Sonny Gray remains to be seen.

Edge: Houston

Bullpen: Joe Girardi hasn’t hesitated to go to one of the Yankees’ main strengths this postseason, but he’s had to lean heavily on Aroldis Chapman, David Robertson and even Tommy Kahnle, while Dellin Betances and Chad Green have taken a backseat after rough outings. Houston closer Ken Giles is in his first postseason and was scored upon in each of his two appearances against the Red Sox, but he’s coming off a good season and Chris Devenski and Joe Musgrove could prove vital to Houston’s chances.

Edge: Yankees

Manager

The Yankees survived Girardi’s gaffe-filled Game 2 and he’s got much more experience in these kinds of games, but A.J. Hinch has done a masterful job of guiding a youthful team this far. Hinch did make a questionable move of his own, when he used Verlander in relief in Game 4.

Edge: Yankees

Intangibles

The Astros have home-field advantage, won the season series and have the AL MVP candidate who actually is playing like one, but the Yankees pulled off a nearly impossible feat in coming back from a 2-0 series deficit against the Indians in the ALDS, rallying around Girardi in the process.
